What is an Energy Performance Certificate? An Energy Performance certificate provides details of how energy efficient a property is by giving it a grading on a scale A-G, with A being the most energy efficient. As well as the Energy Efficiency grading a property is also given an Environmental Impact rating again on a scale of A-G with a property rated A having no impact on the environment.
These ratings are shown in a table similar to those supplied with electrical appliances such as fridges and washing machines. An average property in the UK has a grading of D or E on both scales. The EPC also includes recommendations of the ways in which the property's energy efficiency can be improved. These recommendations are grouped into Lower Cost measures (under £500), Medium Cost measures (£500 and over) and Further measures.
